are increasingly relying on private health care institutions. While in 2014, the ratio of those who turned to a private healthcare provider was 45% in the country and 49% in the capital, by 2016 this ratio increased to 60% in Budapest. Year by year, the number of private patients is increasing. And this number is growing steadily. However, this change is not only reflected in the number of private patients but also in their attitudes. Nowadays it has become a requirement that the private healthcare sector, which is fully compatible with patient safety requirements, is ethically and transparently representing patients' interests.As the number of private patients, the number of private institutions is growing steadily. In this dynamically growing and ever-changing private healthcare sector it is difficult to find out who does not know the health system from the inside.
